Last year I began a tradition of being grateful everyday.
Each day, at the end of the day, I would take a scrap of paper and write down all the things that I was thankful for.
they would read as 'Thank you for chocolate, thank you for summer, thank you for Josh Pyke, etc'
I wasn't thanking anyone in particular, it wasn't a prayer to an omnipotent force, I was just grateful.

I stopped doing this when times got rough (don't worry I wont go into it)
but the recent discovery of  a certain blog  (http://inspacesbetween.com/making-me-happy/making-me-happy-34/ ) (check it out!!) has inspired me to start the tradition again. So along with writing on itty bits of paper, I also decided to publish them on here. So making it onto my love list this week is:  

New things! 

mama bought me three pairs of shoes this week, all boots, naturally.

these are my favourite, they're lace on the side and cute as a button. I often get critized for wearing my big, dirty boots with pretty outfits (I guess people don't appreciate juxtaposition) But I think these are cute enough to wear with dresses and lace?

she also bought me two pairs of shorts, a leather and a velvet pair. Just in case you didn't hear me A VELVET PAIR. I adore them, hopefully I get to wear them tomorrow. 

five exams down!

and two to go, but nonetheless five down! Biology is going to be intense, and finishing my major work will be challenging but as you can see, my birthday isn't far off and I am ready to get messy. 

Music

for some reason this turn vertical of its own accord but anywho, the tops three are new CD's bottom oldies, this combined with bob marley has put my in a good mood for my stressful week ahead. 

Rekindled Relationships

I have been spending a lot of time with mama, and its nice. Being more family orientated makes me feel all warm and fuzy. 

I also quite like this song:

happy days xx
